Design and control of the omnidirectional chassis

The master's thesis deals with the design of a locomotion system of an omnidirectional robot designed for application in sandy environment. The introductory part of the thesis is an overview in the field of current solutions of omnidirectional chassis of mobile robots. The thesis continues with a choice of possible variants. The variant evaluated as the most suitable is then elaborated in detail. This includes an analysis of the resistances acting on the chassis under conditions and movements representing omnidirectional movement in the sand. Analysis is followed by a selection of drives and a design solution supplemented by stress analysis. The final part is focused on the chassis control algorithm
